Overview
The Katool KT-EX20 is a compact crawler mini excavator built for reliable digging power in tight or confined spaces. It runs on a dependable Briggs & Stratton gas engine and carries an operating weight under 3,000 lbs, so it delivers controlled excavation performance without the complexity, fuel handling, or transport headaches of larger diesel machines.
An included mechanical thumb improves material handling, making the KT-EX20 well-suited to trenching, landscaping, debris removal, fence installation, and small-scale construction.
